The nature of science: The fundamental role of natural history in ecology, evolution, conservation, and education
There is a contemporary trend in many major research institutions to de‐emphasize the
importance of natural history education in favor of theoretical, laboratory, or simulation …

Subaqueous foraging among carnivorous dinosaurs
Secondary aquatic adaptations evolved independently more than 30 times from terrestrial

Dinosaur biodiversity declined well before the asteroid impact, influenced by ecological and environmental pressures
The question why non-avian dinosaurs went extinct 66 million years ago (Ma) remains
unresolved because of the coarseness of the fossil record. A sudden extinction caused by …

Calcium isotopic ecology of Turkana Basin hominins
Diet is a major driver of hominin evolution, but most of the geochemical evidence relies on
carbon isotopes (δ13C). Here, we report enamel stable calcium isotope (δ44/42Ca) values …
